Hi Jeffrey, my 10 year old recently fell in love with throwing, but also feels drawn to electronics/video games. Do you have any suggestions for the community to increase the popularity of such a low tech hobby when the yonger generation is so interested in high tech pass times?

I think it’s so important to get involved with the community. If you have friends that throw, you will naturally play more too. And people tend to stick to it more, its how I stuck to it for so long!
